Skinny 'Leftover' Turkey Salad

November 7, 2015 Amanda Plott

I decided to get a bit ahead of the game this year with whipping up some yummy ideas on how to use up all those leftovers. And believe me... I love Thanksgiving leftovers. In some cases, it's better than the actual Thanksgiving dinner! But, I tend to like reusing them in a clever and different way than just always reheating and eating.

This Skinny Turkey Salad is a perfect way to use up that leftover turkey after the holidays. It's a fun and healthier twist on one of my favorite chicken salads. That's chicken salad - not chicken on a salad...

Skinny Pumpkin Cream Cheese Roll

November 1, 2015 Amanda Plott

The very first time that I had a pumpkin cream cheese roll, it was sometime in high school when my mom and I had purchased one from a local lady that made them from scratch around the holidays to sell for a little bonus side money.

It was one of the best things that I had ever eaten.

After that, I decided to try my hand at making one the following year. While it turned out well and was quickly gobbled up by my family (especially my little brother.) The task seemed daunting to me; mostly because I was so new to cooking and baking back then...

Since I'm taking Thanksgiving off this year, I've still made it my mission to post a few recipes for those of you that are not.

Don't get me wrong, I love love love cooking in my kitchen on the Holidays, but an amazing opportunity came up for me to dine out with the family at a local hot spot here in Austin instead, so I'm taking it!...

It's cooling off a bit!

Okay... not really. Maybe a degree or two. And that could even just be in my head.

Even so, I wanted to continue indulging with fall-friendly recipes while keeping cool in these 99 degree days of early September...

I know what you're thinking, mostly because when I first heard of this flavor combination a few years ago... I was a little skeptical as well. But, I promise this sauce is absolutely amazing and perfect for fall!...
